Little Musings

Thursday, January 26, 2012

I have been toying with the idea of fringe recently.

I'm looking for a noncommittal hairstyle change. I want a new look without a major cut (or colour, obviously). Bangs seem to be the answer. They add an instant chic and a little edginess. Plus, it's simple to undo if I have regrets (i.e. bobby pins and patience).

For me, the only drawback of bangs is that it's high maintenance. They require constant grooming.

I have grown accustomed to my low maintenance hair routine, so I'm not sure how easy the transition will be.

I think bangs suit me (see exhibit A below). This picture was taken circa 2010 --- I was still a BlackBerry user then. It's crazy to think that this was two years ago considering that I still own/wear that top, I still use that bag, I still wear that bracelet, I still have those sunglasses, and my hair now is relatively the same length. It's like nothing has changed.
